28. Tools Authentication Authorization Cryptography Accountability Security Administration

29. Aware Applications Security Aware Applications Uses security APIs to access and validate the security policies Security Unaware Applications Need interceptors that call security on behalf of the application Security Self-reliant Does not need or want framework security

30. Type of Solution Soup to nuts From APIs to total integration Standard API (EJB and (CORBA) Custom Security API (no standard available) Vendor Security API (proprietary)

31. Usability Factors Provides centralized and remote security control over a distributed environment, with an easy-to-use GUI console for definition and management of the companies security policy Access to operation, interfaces and objects can be authorized by groups or individuals

32. Mature System Other than a few e-mails from the company staff, NO buzz in the industry If you were doing Security, would you brag about it? Would you want your customers to open up about it? Suspect this is limited to a very few companies with severe security issues

33. Product Classification This enterprise-class solution provides a means of controlling application/system access in a distributed environment. Complies with and exceeds the OMG CORBA security service specifications C++ & Java

34. Conclusion EAI with Security as the driving force All levels of the system Not a simple solution, but then again, not a simple problem to solve When you think about it, linking everything with EAI will connect hackers with your data in all new ways. Let the Link be the Security too !
